- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup vanilla protein powder
Milkshake Add-Ins
- 1/2 cup oat milk
- 2-3 Tablespoons chocolate syrup (lower-sugar or sugar-free option is best)
Instructions
- Prepare the Ice Cream Base: Whisk together 2 cups oat milk, 1/4 cup peanut butter, 1/4 cup maple syrup, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/4 cup vanilla protein powder until smooth and fully combined.
- Freeze the Base: Pour the mixture into a Ninja Creami pint container, seal with the lid, and freeze for 12-24 hours to allow it to fully set.
- Add Milkshake Ingredients: Remove the lid and add 1/2 cup oat milk and 2-3 tablespoons chocolate syrup to the frozen base.
- Spin the Milkshake: Place the pint container into the Ninja Creami machine and select the milkshake setting to blend the ingredients into a creamy consistency.
- Stir and Respin: Remove the container, stir the mixture gently to blend any uneven parts, then respin on the milkshake setting to achieve a thick but pourable milkshake texture.
- Serve and Enjoy: The milkshake will be thick but will melt quickly to a smooth consistency. Serve immediately or store leftovers properly.
Notes
- Tip: Swap oat milk for soy milk to retain creaminess with higher protein content.
- Store: Return any leftovers to a Ninja Creami pint container and freeze for up to a week.
- Serve: Allow it to sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes before adding a tablespoon of milk and respinning on the milkshake setting for best texture.
